Nataliya Preiss is part executive mentor, part feminine alchemist, part frequency calibrator, and part soul-vision architect for women who are done hiding their brilliance under obligation, roles, or inherited narratives. She supports women in releasing the identities they outgrew — the pleaser, the performer, the caretaker, the dutiful daughter — and stepping fully into the woman they were always meant to be:sovereign, expressed, magnetic, and deeply in love with her own life.

Nataliya is currently writing her next body of work — a trilogy of books ("Her Heart,""Her Voice," and “Graceful Power”) that brings the feminine back into leadership, creation, and prosperity.

If today’s conversation touched something tender within you, if you felt God whisper through this conversation… that was your heart remembering. 

Nataliya is opening her newest program, Her Heart, for women who are ready to live from truth again — not fear, not self-betrayal, not survival. It’s where the heart learns it’s safe to stay open… even after it’s been broken.  For women who are ready to feel again — to receive again — to love again.

You can join the waitlist and receive a beautiful heart-opening gift at phenomenalcoach.com/heart.

“Hypocrisy and self-deception proved to be far greater dangers than uncertainty.” B. McLaren, Faith After Doubt, page 28 This resonated 1000% with me when I read it.  One must be in congruence with their personal integrity.  It will literally make you ill if you do not. And so, leaning into one’s integrity, or one’s truth we go on with this journey of faith.   Brian McLaren's four stages of faith has been the answer to prayer for many sojourner's on the path of their personal faith journey's. He has broken this concept of faith development down into stages much like psychologists have broken down human development into stages.  In fact that was his inspiration.

David Smurthwaite is a fortunate partner of his wife Marisa and the father of their four inspiring boys: Noah, Sam, Oliver, and Eliot. They have lived on five continents over the past decade and love traveling to little-known corners of the world, movie nights, board games, and partying with extended family.

As a gender-expansive soul, David loves every chance to educate on LGBTQIA+ topics within the culture of the Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-Day Saints. His hope with every conversation is a greater sense of belonging for LGBTQIA+ members and allies.

David’s fondest Church memories have come from serving with the youth and young adults as a bishop, a youth leader, and a seminary teacher.

If you'd like to learn more about David, you can find him on Medium and Instagram.

Jill Naylor Mortensen is a fierce and proud Mama Dragon. Throughout the past seven years, her journey of leaning in, listening, and learning to become a better LGBTQ+ advocate and ally has opened the door for numerous opportunities to serve alongside the local queer community. She has spent countless hours listening to, and believing, the stories of LGBTQ+ individuals and their families through her volunteer work with Encircle St. George, where she served as Advisory Board Chair.  A 2022 St. George Area Chamber of Commerce Element Award honoree, Jill is not afraid to bring awareness to the ongoing challenges many queer people face living in Southern Utah and is deeply committed to creating a community where everyone belongs. She strives to educate others through the power of story by openly sharing her family’s journey of fully embracing and celebrating their own queer child.  Jill is happiest lounging on the back patio of her home, listening to music and sipping a cold beverage with her husband of twenty one years, Marc. Together, they’re raising three children, one astonishingly resilient goldfish and a fluffy feline nicknamed “Kitty.”

Casey is a father of 4 kids and a full time photographer. He and his wife spend 1.5-2 months a year in Italy leading tours. In 2006 my faith started crumbling. By 2016 I essentially had lost all faith in the Latter Day Saint tradition. I had an experience that year that helped me realize that not only did I not want to throw away my heritage, I couldn’t. I began trying to understand paradox and eventually created an account on Instagram called @pioneeringparadox. It’s largely an expressive outlet for me to make sense of it all. I currently am attending the Living School led by Richard Rohr and Brian McLaren.  Connect with Casey on IG @pioneeringparadox ___________________________________ The ⁠⁠Beyond the Shadow of Doubt™⁠⁠ podcast is a proud member of the Dialogue Podcast Network found at ⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠DialogueJournal.com/podcasts⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠. Part of the Dialogue Journal, the Dialogue Podcast Network was founded by Eugene England, a Mormon writer, teacher and scholar. “My faith encourages my curiosity and awe,” Gene wrote in the very first issue of the journal. “It thrusts me out into relationship with all creation” and “encourages me to enter into dialogue.” My hope is that this podcast is an extension of his vision.

"Pruning, digging, getting out the decay then grafting in the new is future focussed.  It is creation focussed.

Michelle was raised in Southern Idaho in an active LDS family that goes back six generations in Mormonism.  She and her husband, Bob, were married in the Salt Lake Temple in 1985 and have raised 3 amazing children and have 2 adorable grandchildren. After actively attending and serving in the LDS church for over 4 decades, Michelle and Bob found themselves experiencing a transition in their faith and together left the church last October. Along with her husband, Michelle has found a new religious community in the First Congregational United Church of Christ and is currently in the process of redefining what religion, God, and meaning making look like in her life. During this faith transition, Michelle felt a need to document the process and share her experiences, so she created an Instagram account under the handle @edge_of_inside where she has found healing and friendship with many others deconstructing their faith. One of the meaningful ways Michelle has found to find purpose since leaving the church is through her volunteer work as a crisis counselor with The Trevor Project. She finds this work, although a bit intimidating, to be one of the most rewarding and challenging things she has ever done. Some of the things Michelle enjoys are music, dogs, soapmaking, hiking and pickleball. Connect with Michelle on Instagram: @edge_of_inside

Lauren Jones’ journey started in AZ, then UT, now NM and soon the east coast. As a Mental Health Therapist, she understands the importance of living in congruence with your true self. She shares how she decided to transition which happened well before meeting the missionaries, taking the discussions and eventually joining the LDS Church. Lauren talks about why transitioning helped her be her full self which brought more happiness and peace into her life. She talks about why she joined the church and the effect the words of the Book of Mormon had on her. She has strong desires to serve, love and grow both in the sense of a faith community and on a more personal level, with a significant other. Although she is so grateful she has always been loved and supported in whatever congregation she has resided in, she finds herself asking “Where am I needed?” in her new faith.

Whether it's physical pain or emotional pain, healing from our wounds is not a one and done thing. The same is also true for pain from mental and spiritual wounds.

We can do all the work that we think is needed and arrive at a place of feeling healed and even function better for a while. Then something happens -- an event, circumstance, a person, or a situation -- can activate it and we begin to feel that same old familiar pain yet again.

It's normal and natural to want to resist it. Perhaps we think it's behind us and we've grown beyond or past it.

It's up to us what we make of it we can make it mean a lot of things-- that we did something wrong or we didn't do enough the first time around OR we can also make it mean that this is just a natural course of healing.

We heal in community; listen to this episode to learn what to do with old pain.

Iese Purcell Wilson’s life mission is to hold space and build bridges at complex intersections of society. This is due to his backgrounds of being Samoan, Hawaiian, Filipino, and English raised in the US while also claiming space in both the LGBTQ Community & the Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-day Saints. The choral craft has become the perfect medium for empathy-based advocacy at these intersections. Iese is currently at ASU pursuing a Masters of Music in Choral Conducting. He was previously known for his work of building bridges at his alma mater, BYU-Hawai’i, where he came out as being openly gay. At BYUH, Iese would go on to privately comfort about 200 students from dozens of countries, meet with the BYUH Presidents Council to discuss the wellbeing of these LGBTQ+ students for the first time in school history, co-found Hawai’i’s first (Latter-day Saint) LGBTQ+ support group off campus for students and staff, helped create and host the first LGBTQ+ fireside on the BYUH campus, and offered the first LGBTQ+ awareness training for the Guest Services Department at the Polynesian Cultural Center.

"To empower the world to celebrate the LGBTQIA+ community through visibility, education, and conversation." -Mission freemomhugs.org

Sara Cunningham is an author, activist, and founder of the non-profit organization Free Mom Hugs. Her journey is a surprising one that began in conservative Oklahoma, when her son, Parker, came out as gay. As a woman of faith, Sara wrestled with the news until she began to study, research, and reconcile the two worlds. This journey resulted in her book How We Sleep at Night.

She found herself on a journey “from the church to the Pride parade,” falling in love with the LGBTQIA+ community. In the wake of beautiful glitter-covered hugs and heart-breaking horror stories, the mission of Free Mom Hugs began. Simple acts of love and acceptance turned into a viral sensation, and Sara knew she had the opportunity to lead impactful change. 

Free Mom Hugs is now a movement across the country and the world. Sara is the embodiment of a core value of Free Mom Hugs:

At Free Mom Hugs, we affirm the LGBTQIA+ community as an important part of our society. We believe they deserve full equality and freedom of expression. The foundation of everything we do is motivated by unconditional love.

David is a critical care physician, outdoor enthusiast and amateur scenic photographer who was born into the church and was a devout member for decades until his children became teenagers and experienced harm from the church institution.

Trying to see the church through their eyes expanded his view to the diverse ways it hurts many saints. He became particularly alarmed by seeing the ways that queer saints have been harmed by evolving doctrine and policy, and in 2022 began sharing his thoughts through an anonymous Instagram account (@_mindful_faith_) on how to redirect the body of Christ toward the ideal of Zion, where all feel equally cherished and supported.

The account was discovered by family members and shared with church authorities because of its critiques of current doctrines and policies that cause harm, which resulted in excommunication for apostasy.

He decided that would not derail his efforts to help church members, former members, and those straddling the boundary in between, to process the dissonance between their own spiritual compass and the religion that has had such a profound influence on their lives.

He has chosen to keep his surname private because of the traumatic invasion of privacy he experienced in the process of his account being used to expel him from the church and estrange him from family and friends.

Connect with David on Instagram @_mindful_faith

Quote from J. Rueben Clark mentioned in the episode:

“If we have the truth, it cannot be harmed by investigation. If we have not the truth, it ought to be harmed.”

Today's episode is a recording of a devotional I was asked to give for the Emmaus LGBTQ Ministry on January 21, 2024. It is an extension of Episode #95 Co-existing Faith. I would love to know your thoughts after listening.

The Emmaus LGBTQ Ministry operates on these two principles: 

1) It is crucial for the well being of LGBTQ individuals to be able to live in a space where their faith, spirituality and religion can co-exist with their identity as LGBTQ.  Forcing a choice between one or the other creates trauma and unhealthy emotional, relational and spiritual patterns.  

2) There is value in encouraging spiritual practice and connection and inclusion in a spiritual community even when individuals are not perfectly conforming with church norms.

According to board member Sytske Woodhouse, Jr, "We try to remember those two principles as we operate.  We value all people’s paths and [also] everyone’s personal revelation we honor."

Jaymie Batten began her career as an 8th grade teacher. During her first year of teaching, a troubled student from a broken home needed more support than she knew how to provide, so she enrolled in school counseling courses and has been working as a school counselor after graduating with her Master’s Degree in School Counseling from Texas A&M Commerce in 2014. She worked for years at that same middle school in the role of school counselor, but when a position at Sunnyvale High School became available in 2018, she jumped at the opportunity. She is currently completing her sixth year there. Jaymie not only focuses on academic counseling, but prides herself in the genuine connections she makes with her students and their families using both person-centered and solution-focused counseling. Jaymie is a Christian that firmly believes God is love and God’s love is for all people. Jaymie and her high school sweetheart, Richard, are doing their best to raise their two boys, Jay and Hank, with grace, acceptance and love.

2023 has been the year of DISCOMFORTABLE.  That’s the word of the year I chose for myself in January 2023. 

I wrote, “Time to normalize that it’s not a problem to feel discomfort.The only time it is, is when YOU make it a problem.  This year I’m leaning in hard to all things discomfort until they become ‘discomfortable.’”  

As a result and true to my word, I have consciously pushed myself from my comfort zone to the zone of discomfort.  Significant discomfort.

I have learned to listen to myself and be better in tune when to step back or give myself time and space AND alternatively when to push.

Joel Kirk Richards is a contemporary artist whose work engages with themes of antiquity, religion, spirituality, equality, and love. His work asks questions about modern application and implementation of religion as it relates to historical narratives and mythologies. The work often prioritizes the poetry of religious text over dogma or historical accuracy. Stylistically it often bridges or walks a tightrope between classical and abstract expression. From 1999 to 2022, Kirk created about 2300 physical works of art, most of which can be found in private collections throughout the United States. His images have been licensed for devotional and religious studies publications internationally. In 2020, Kirk founded a mixed-use art space, including studio rentals, a gallery that hosts monthly themed exhibits by living professionals and semi-professionals, and a continued education art academy. Kirk lives and works at his studios in Woodland Hills, Redmond, and Provo, Utah, and in Bondsville, Massachusetts. He and his wife Amy Tolk Richards have four children.

Liz and Ryan (@the.fourth.option) were both raised in the Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-day Saints. Neither of them realized they were gay until they accidentally fell in love as roommates at Brigham Young University, a church-sponsored school. Both returned missionaries with strong testimonies of Jesus Christ, Liz and Ryan struggled to figure out how their faith of origin intersected with their queerness. Over time, they felt guided to embrace both integral parts of themselves--and each other.

They have now been married for two and a half years, have two dogs, and are preparing to become foster parents. Liz is a certified teacher who currently runs an outdoor education program, and Ryan is an EMT and will be starting occupational therapy school this fall. In their spare time, they love playing board games, doing puzzles, watching movies, and rock climbing.
They also run an Instagram account where they share their experiences as a queer couple continuing to participate in church. We hope you follow along in their journey and join the growing community of LGBTQIA+ folks and allies who are trying to reclaim space at their church communities.

Learning to be in tune with God — the Divine — and receiving personal revelation is a skill that takes practice.  It’s possible some believe it’s supposed to “come naturally” but this simply isn’t true.  With practice of anything, we increase in our skill level.  The same is true of  learning and trying out steps to receive personal revelation.

Bree has experienced gender incongruence for about fifty years and an experience in November of 2019 caused a “coming out”. This has led to a more active role in the LGBTQIA community with a focus on transgender issues. Through this experience, Bree has come to realize and accept who she really is, the love of our Heavenly Parents and our Savior, and to appreciate and love the diversity of all people. Bree found a lifeline through the love and support of her spouse Kit and the wonderful people in the LGBTQ community.

Michael Soto is a transgender man who grew up a member of the Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-day Saints in Mesa, Arizona. He credits his family and the Church for setting an example of being a man of value, character, integrity, and being a leader in a challenging world. Michael grew up in the 1980s and 90s and at that time he and his family did not even know transgender people existed, nor that gender affirmative medical care and support were an option. From his earliest ages, Michael knew he was a boy. After years of struggle, learning, and prayer, Michael received personal and overwhelming revelation from God that his life has purpose, that there is much work for him to do, that he is a child of God no matter his sexual orientation or gender identity, and that this is a part of his purpose. He believes his queer transgender identity is one of life’s greatest blessings and he is dedicated to loving and supporting his fellow human beings along their journey toward authentic and purposeful lives.   Today, Michael is a leader in the U.S. LGBTQ+ rights movement and for the past 25 years he has committed his life to this work. Recently, he has worked closely with leaders of the Church in Arizona and Salt Lake City on anti-discrimination legislation, where he has built long-lasting relationships of goodwill and trust. Michael is Co-Founder of the Equality and Fairness Coalition and the Chief Advocacy Officer for One Community. He holds two degrees from Arizona State University—a B.A. in Women and Gender Studies and a M.S. in Justice Studies. He is currently a PhD student in Justice Studies. He is also a proud dog dad and caregiver for his mom—his living example of unconditional love. Content Advisory: This episode contains mention of death by homicide related to Transgender Day of Rembrance.
